Listener comments!
	9:03pm Dave Mandl: Evening, all.
	9:04pm pacific standard simon: Good hello, Dave!
	9:05pm Dave Mandl: Hey, Simon.
	9:05pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...Is Unfashionably Early fashionable this week - ?!? I can't keep it straight...
	9:06pm pacific standard simon: I don't know what to say after last week's show. That's the only entire show that I've favorited.
	9:07pm fleep: 14 Bathwick Hill: www.fluid-radio.co.uk...
	9:07pm David D: Good evening!
	9:08pm Uncle Michael: Last week's show belongs on a plinth.
	9:09pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...DrumShow: In retrospect - like Jack Black's 'School of Rock' er something...
	9:09pm Dave Mandl: Welcome, RR, Fleep, UM, DD
	9:09pm trsh: Hey Dave. Yours is a good show to listen to and get stuff done. I think it's the fine instrumentals/absence of lyrics.
	9:09pm pacific standard simon: Nice, fleep!
	9:09pm fleep: Should be repackaged as a premium for next year.
	9:11pm Uncle Michael: (wonders if Dave's show is ever "skim")
	9:11pm Dave Mandl: Thanks, folks. Much appreciated. The response has been really heart-warming.
	9:12pm Dave Mandl: And of course, thanks to Evan and Irwin, without whom etc.
	9:12pm Dave Mandl: @Fleep: Good idea. Putting together Marathon premiums is not easy.
	9:15pm Dave Mandl: @trsh: Gracias. The no-vocals thing isn't conscious. It dawned on me one day that I play very little music with vocals. That just happens somehow. And I don't really plan the shows in advance, so whatever I grab in the hours before my show, that's what I play.
	9:18pm Dave Mandl: @Fleep: Thanks for the link. I think Fluid Radio is excellent.
	9:22pm pacific standard simon: Is Mr. Chase playing a drum like a glass harmonica?
	9:26pm Folsom: Last week's show was very good. I have a couple of friends that are drummers, and they both liked the show.
	9:28pm beavoux: Searched Bathwick hill it's in Bath
	9:28pm Al: From Verona, NJ, but temp in Wisconsin. What is playing on i-Tunes? It's not the same as live stream here (which is also avail on Winamp.) I;Tunes is playing Thelma Baxter.
	9:29pm Michele: I believe Brian Chase is also in Man Forever
	9:30pm Michele: Great opening set Dave, really enjoyed it! Was in a weird mood (bad) and now I'm in a weird mood (good). Thanks!
	9:30pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: I'm listening on iTunes & it's fine. Did you maybe Click on one of FMU's other Streams?
	9:32pm Al: i;Tunes says it's /WFMU_rock.pls
	9:33pm Rev. Turnip Druid: Haden!
	9:34pm David D: Al, that is probably Rock n' Roll Ichiban.
	9:34pm Uncle Michael: Charlie Haden's a graduate of the same high school as both of my parents.
	9:35pm beavoux: Jack Black's father in law.
	9:36pm David D: Sorry, Rock n' Soul, that should read.
	9:36pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: My WestCoast friend who was my StraightAhead JazzMentor is very into Charlie Haden (Petra's dad, btw) - adding to the Homeyness of being here tonight. - Yeah - Mr. Haden is MidWestern in origin - started as a tiny kid in the family C&W band on the radio...
	9:36pm Dave Mandl: @Folsom: Thanks. @beauvoux: Thanks for the GPS info.
	9:37pm Dave Mandl: @Michele: It's my pleasure to serve you.
	9:41pm beavoux: Love the Drake.
	9:42pm Al: It could be ichiban. I moved to Verona way back when Vin Scelsa used to talk about te Claremont Diner. I lived in the Bronx. I bought a house in Verona, went to the Claremont with my wife when we closed. It burned down shortly after. And then again. 36 years later I still live in Verona (great little town; half way between NYC and Wisconsin I tell my wife) and listen to Scelsa on FUV Sat nights!
	9:42pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Nick Drake - like the European Robert Johnson - a kind of amazing ghost...
	9:42pm Uncle Michael: A friend of mine says Nick Drake OD'd on pot. I think he's just being facetious.
	9:43pm Dave Mandl: @beavoux: Pink Moon is one of the most beautiful records ever.
	9:43pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Nick Drake fatally OD'd on antidepressants (as they existed in the early 70's).
	9:44pm Dave Mandl: RR is right. They never knew for sure whether it was suicide or an accident.
	9:45pm Dave Mandl: He suffered from terrible depression his whole life.
	9:46pm beavoux: I have that old oop box set always near the player.
	9:47pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: - Drake didn't like Performing, & so he his career floundered.
	9:47pm beavoux: He had terrible stage fright and did few shows.
	9:49pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: - A Song&DanceMan Nick Drake was not. - This is a Classic bit of writing about Drake by Ian MacDonald, who also died @ his own hand : www.algonet.se...
	9:53pm Dave Mandl: The Nick Drake biography that came out 10-ish years ago is good. I forget who wrote it.
	9:54pm David D: I need to get myself a VCS 3.
	9:54pm Al: Dave, I vjust cut and pasted the live stream link from the website into the i-Tunes stream and now it's playing the live stream! About 3 seconds after the Winamp stream.
	9:54pm trsh: A Skin Too Few is a pretty fine documentary on Drake.
	9:55pm Dave Mandl: @trsh: Ah, I've never seen that. I need to ASAP.
	9:55pm Dave Mandl: Is a film or a TV documentary?
	9:55pm beavoux: Thanks for the link rev rabbit
	9:58pm Dave Mandl: @DD: At one time I bet you could get a VCS3 cheap. Now they're probably big bucks because everyone wants old analog synthesizers.
	9:58pm Rev. Turnip Druid: Rather than Pink Floyd, I prefer to think of the VCS3 as the lovely noisemaker between the tunes in Hawkwind's SPACE RITUAL gig release. But hey. An adorable little machine...
	9:59pm Rev. Turnip Druid: And you can get 'em made custom, legit, nowadays. But it might take a bunch of years to get it in hand.
	9:59pm steve: is the VCS3 the synth with the Battleship style peg board?
	10:00pm trsh: It's a documentary-- ~chronological biography. IMDB says 48 min. And http://www.nickdrakefilm.com
	10:00pm Ralphine: A Skin Too Few: youtu.be...
	10:00pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Yeah beavoux - that MacDonald piece really enhanced my comprehension & appreciation of Drake's lyrics & intent.
	10:01pm beavoux: I thought you meant the Ian McDonald from King Crimson. Who apparently is still with us.
	10:03pm Dave Mandl: @Ralphine: Thanks.
	10:04pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Ian MacDonald wiki : en.wikipedia.org... - Yes - Thx for 'Skin Too Few' Intel & Link.
	10:05pm David D: Yes, that could be a very expensive toy.
	10:06pm trsh: The critics loved it, if anyone'd prefer that way to see it: http://www.rottentomatoes.com/m/skin_too_few_the_days_of_nick_drake/
	10:06pm fleep: VCS3 www.vintagesynth.com...
	10:07pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: DM (anyone): Are you a Captain Beyond enthusiast?
	10:09pm Dave Mandl: @RR: Not so much.
	10:09pm fleep: A Fistful of Umlauts
	10:10pm David D: I guess I really need to register - I got that last math problem wrong.
	10:10pm beavoux: I grew up with that first album. Learned to play guitar copping Rhino's riffs.
	10:10pm Dave Mandl: Should be easier to get umlauts on a Mac. ÜüÜüÜüÜüÜüÜüÜüÜüÜüÜüÜüÜüÜüÜü
	10:11pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Oh. 'It generates familiar sci-fi sounds (Dr. Who)' - 'Dr. Who' is the first thing I thot on seeing it! I know nothing about synths - but it's a nice looking thing.
	10:13pm Ralphine: HAH!! Correctly guessed Jackie Gleason.
	10:15pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: - well - Captain Beyond suffered from being too 'Prog' for Rockers, & vice-versa - whereas for some of us, that's exactly the appeal.
	10:16pm beavoux: Jackie Gleason had an LP that Dali did the cover for.
	10:17pm Uncle Michael: A lot of Bushwickers claim Bensonhurst. Unrepentant social climbers....
	10:18pm Ralphine: Okay Mr. Honeymooners Expert, who is the composer of Swanee River?
	10:18pm Uncle Michael: Ed Norton!
	10:19pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...I think - Dust? - put me in mind of C.Beyond...
	10:19pm beavoux: Rod Evans who sang Hush with Deep Purple left after the first LP.
	10:20pm Ralphine: My favorite Honeymooners line!
	10:21pm Uncle Michael: Can it core a apple?
	10:21pm beavoux: Hey Ralphie boy!
	10:22pm Ralphine: The Chef of the Future?
	10:22pm unununun: Magma & the prog rock groups that were spawned as a result of their music are considered Zeuhl. Zeuhl means 'celestial' in the Kobaïan language invented by the drummer and composer of Magma, Christian Zander.
	10:22pm beavoux: This is all over the place.
	10:23pm unununun: I know, way late to posting that. ^ ^ Sorry.
	10:24pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: HoneyMoonersCaptainBeyond: One of these days - Pow! Straight to the MoonSpeaks Softly to the Sea...
	10:25pm fleep: Zeuhl sounds very cromulent.
	10:25pm beavoux: Paul McCartney called him Crazy Moondog.
	10:26pm Uncle Michael: There is no Dana...only Zeuhl.
	10:27pm Dave Mandl: @Ralphine: Give me another Honeymooners line.
	10:27pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Maybe CaptainBeyond goes w/ Honeymooners Like DarkSide & Wiz of Oz... - Johnny & the Moondogs was one of the early Beatles monikers. - I wonder what the history of that word - Moondog - is. It calls to mind the Moon card in Tarot...
	10:28pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: - speaking of RobertJohnson...
	10:28pm Uncle Michael: Moondog Matinee
	10:28pm Dave Mandl: I hope they like those jokes on the moon, 'cause that's where you're going.
	10:29pm beavoux: And a VCS3 to boot
	10:32pm beavoux: Great show so far Dave!
	10:32pm Ralphine: "Well, say hello to Ralphina."
	10:33pm pacific standard simon: Well, a SUNdog is an atmospheric phenomenon that looks like a halo or pair of bright spots around the sun, so there's that.
	10:34pm Dave Mandl: @beavoux: Thanks, and was that a Honeymooners reference? ("And a scratch to boot.")
	10:36pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Canines howl @ the Moon.
	10:37pm Uncle Michael: Alan Freed was Moondog too.
	10:37pm beavoux: Sure!
	10:38pm pacific standard simon: The two of them actually got into some legal bickering over it.
	10:39pm beavoux: Captain Video!
	10:41pm Uncle Michael: James Darren was Moondoggie.
	10:42pm Droll: Captain Video was the sci-fi show with a western stuck in the middle! Those are wild!
	10:44pm Keili: HIHIHIHIHIHIHIHIHIHIHIHIHIHIHIHwalruses
	10:45pm Dave Mandl: @Keili, what's up?!
	10:48pm beavoux: Norton loved CV www.youtube.com...
	10:51pm pacific standard simon: It seems that the mascot of the Cleveland Cavaliers is named Moondog.
	10:55pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: cor'blimey
	10:59pm Keili: NOTHING.
	10:59pm beavoux: cool
	11:01pm Dave Mandl: @K: You're going to be on the air w/Amedeo at 3, right?
	11:03pm Keili: MAYBZ. YEAH. I WILL. THATS CAPITAL E TO U BUDDY
	11:03pm amEdeo: YEAH.
	11:05pm amEdeo: WUT WUT????
	11:06pm beavoux: Didn't DJ Julie say she was gonna be on with DJ amEdeo. The other morning?
	11:06pm Dave Mandl: Sorry, my Shift kEy is broken.
	11:07pm pacific standard simon: Messin' wit chu.
	11:08pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Nutty track!...was Zappa-ish - now all King Crimsony...
	11:09pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...wait - did I miss transition Jaga to Mole...
	11:09pm Dave Mandl: Matching Mole. Robert Wyatt's band.
	11:10pm Dave Mandl: Yeah, I think you did. It was a subtle segue.
	11:10pm pacific standard simon: Machine Molle
	11:10pm beavoux: Most of those Canterbury scene bands have that same influece.
	11:10pm Dave Mandl: @PSS: C'est vrai.
	11:11pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: eh, I ✩ all the bastards...I listen to Soft Machine often enuff, I shoulda heard...
	11:12pm beavoux: National Health, Gilgamesh, Hatfield and the North etc.
	11:13pm pacific standard simon: Naturellement, mon petit chou.
	11:13pm tomB: @simon: thanx for explaining, I knew it was a pun, but couldn't remember how!
	11:19pm tomB: that's the 2nd time I've been fooled by Dinger +Japandorf
	11:21pm beavoux: That Matching Mole Little Red Record was produced by Robert Fripp. I didn't know that.
	11:22pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: - so I not off thinking of Crimson.
	11:24pm Dave Mandl: Fripp also produced the group Centipede, which contained a lot of people from that same crowd.
	11:25pm beavoux: @Rev Rabbit, Bill MacCormick was the brother of The Ian MacDonald that wrote the Drake piece. so it all ties together lol.
	11:26pm beavoux: Six degrees of World of Echo.
	11:26pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: - you'd think they all lived together on some little island country or something...
	11:27pm Ralphine: I remember seeing Fripp somewhere in New York a long time ago. His performance consisted of walking on stage, fiddling with his Frippertronics machines, then leaving the stage to let them play, then fiddling with the machines some more, then leaving the stage, and so forth.
	11:28pm 12539: Ralphine, was that at the World Financial Center?
	11:28pm Dave Mandl: I had Fripp and Toyah (his wife) on my show years ago. It was fabulous.
	11:29pm Dave Mandl: (I mean they were fabulous.)
	11:29pm beavoux: Thats it, Zappa called them "The inhabitants of a miserable little island off the coast of France"
	11:30pm Droll: DM, Is that archived?
	11:30pm Ken From Hyde Park: I was not informed there was a meeting of the Raccoon Lodge this evening.
	11:30pm Ralphine: No, I didn't think he was actually at the WFC, but I was there for that, too.
	11:31pm beavoux: Sunday all Over the World was pretty good.
	11:31pm 12539: At one of the WFC shows, he made of point of letting the machinery whir while he crossed the space a short while for a "photo opportunity."
	11:31pm Ralphine: I want to say it was at the Bottom Line.
	11:32pm Dave Mandl: @beaucoux: Yes, it was just after the Sunday All Over the World CD came out.
	11:33pm Dave Mandl: @Ken from Hyde Park: There's a bar in Manhattan called the Raccoon Lodge, and it's not far from the World Financial Center. So it seems everything in the universe is connected.
	11:33pm tomB: speaking of Fripp, I just read The Vicar
	11:33pm beavoux: I just remember the track Strange Girls.
	11:36pm beavoux: @Dave, Is that in the archive?
	11:37pm Dave Mandl: No, it predates the archive. 1991, I think.
	11:38pm Dave Mandl: I have a cassette copy of it somewhere, but I've never had the nerve to listen to it. (I'm talking about me, not Fripp.)
	11:39pm Dave Mandl: Julie made a copy of it for herself last year, and she's going to be on AmEdeo's show in a few hours, so ask her about it.
	11:40pm 12539: A 22 year old cassette should probably be transferred, in the interest of History.
	11:41pm beavoux: He sounds like a difficlult and intimidating, yet interesing interview from the ones I've read.
	11:41pm G: Julie interviewed Toyah by phone a couple of years ago, and wrote 1991 as year for the Mandl/Fripp/Toyah interview... Would be cool to upload it if revisiting one's old self were not so scary (I hate reading my old stuff :( )
	11:42pm Dave Mandl: Yup, that's right. She copied it to prepare for that interview.
	11:44pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: I was trolling YouTube videos of people's accounts of meeting Hendrix - & there's Fripp's (audio). He sounds like a personable polite Englishman there - tho' I can well imagine he does not suffer fools.
	11:46pm beavoux: He doesn't like being approached by "fans" at shows.
	11:47pm Dave Mandl: I was terrified from the stories I'd heard, but he was charming and very funny.
	11:48pm Dave Mandl: I got a lift back to NY by the guy from the record company, with Fripp, Toyah, and Trey Gunn.
	11:49pm amEdeo: DAVE WHERE MAH HUGS.
	11:51pm Dave Mandl: You mean Huggies?
	11:52pm Dave Mandl: You're not that young.
	11:53pm Droll: Last Fripp interview I saw was heartbreaking. He called making records nowadays a "joyless exercise in futility": www.ft.com...
	11:53pm Dave Mandl: Just kidding. I'll give you a hug on my way out.
	11:53pm pacific standard simon: MAN hugs
	11:54pm beavoux: Sounds like a VCS3 again.
	11:54pm Dave Mandl: Very possible. This is from '74.
	11:54pm pacific standard simon: Wah-wah electric saxophone
	11:55pm pacific standard simon: with delay
	11:56pm beavoux: It was one of the first if not the first sequencer on the market.
	11:57pm 12539: Quality show, Dave.
	11:57pm pacific standard simon: ba-be-bi-bo-bu-bye-bye d-d-dave
	11:59pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Thx Again!
	11:59pm Uncle Michael: Thank you Dave.
	11:59pm fleep: Thanks, Dave.
	12:00am trsh: Tense bed music at that. FIne listening,
	12:00am pacific standard simon: Uncle Michael has the right approach to the music bed: hang a microphone out the window.
	12:00am beavoux: Bye now, next week.
	12:01am Dave Mandl: Night, everyone!

	9:42pm Al: It could be ichiban. I moved to Verona way back when Vin Scelsa used to talk about te Claremont Diner. I lived in the Bronx. I bought a house in Verona, went to the Claremont with my wife when we closed. It burned down shortly after. And then again. 36 years later I still live in Verona (great little town; half way between NYC and Wisconsin I tell my wife) and listen to Scelsa on FUV Sat nights!
	9:42pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Nick Drake - like the European Robert Johnson - a kind of amazing ghost...
	9:42pm Uncle Michael: A friend of mine says Nick Drake OD'd on pot. I think he's just being facetious.
	9:43pm Dave Mandl: @beavoux: Pink Moon is one of the most beautiful records ever.
	9:43pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Nick Drake fatally OD'd on antidepressants (as they existed in the early 70's).
	9:44pm Dave Mandl: RR is right. They never knew for sure whether it was suicide or an accident.
	9:45pm Dave Mandl: He suffered from terrible depression his whole life.
	9:46pm beavoux: I have that old oop box set always near the player.
	9:47pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: - Drake didn't like Performing, & so he his career floundered.
	9:47pm beavoux: He had terrible stage fright and did few shows.
	9:49pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: - A Song&DanceMan Nick Drake was not. - This is a Classic bit of writing about Drake by Ian MacDonald, who also died @ his own hand : www.algonet.se...
	9:53pm Dave Mandl: The Nick Drake biography that came out 10-ish years ago is good. I forget who wrote it.
	9:54pm David D: I need to get myself a VCS 3.
	9:54pm Al: Dave, I vjust cut and pasted the live stream link from the website into the i-Tunes stream and now it's playing the live stream! About 3 seconds after the Winamp stream.
	9:54pm trsh: A Skin Too Few is a pretty fine documentary on Drake.
	9:55pm Dave Mandl: @trsh: Ah, I've never seen that. I need to ASAP.
	9:55pm Dave Mandl: Is a film or a TV documentary?
	9:55pm beavoux: Thanks for the link rev rabbit
	9:58pm Dave Mandl: @DD: At one time I bet you could get a VCS3 cheap. Now they're probably big bucks because everyone wants old analog synthesizers.
	9:58pm Rev. Turnip Druid: Rather than Pink Floyd, I prefer to think of the VCS3 as the lovely noisemaker between the tunes in Hawkwind's SPACE RITUAL gig release. But hey. An adorable little machine...
	9:59pm Rev. Turnip Druid: And you can get 'em made custom, legit, nowadays. But it might take a bunch of years to get it in hand.
	9:59pm steve: is the VCS3 the synth with the Battleship style peg board?
	10:00pm trsh: It's a documentary-- ~chronological biography. IMDB says 48 min. And http://www.nickdrakefilm.com
	10:00pm Ralphine: A Skin Too Few: youtu.be...
	10:00pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Yeah beavoux - that MacDonald piece really enhanced my comprehension & appreciation of Drake's lyrics & intent.
	10:01pm beavoux: I thought you meant the Ian McDonald from King Crimson. Who apparently is still with us.
	10:03pm Dave Mandl: @Ralphine: Thanks.
	10:04pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Ian MacDonald wiki : en.wikipedia.org... - Yes - Thx for 'Skin Too Few' Intel & Link.
	10:05pm David D: Yes, that could be a very expensive toy.
	10:06pm trsh: The critics loved it, if anyone'd prefer that way to see it: http://www.rottentomatoes.com/m/skin_too_few_the_days_of_nick_drake/
	10:06pm fleep: VCS3 www.vintagesynth.com...
	10:07pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: DM (anyone): Are you a Captain Beyond enthusiast?
	10:09pm Dave Mandl: @RR: Not so much.
	10:09pm fleep: A Fistful of Umlauts
	10:10pm David D: I guess I really need to register - I got that last math problem wrong.
	10:10pm beavoux: I grew up with that first album. Learned to play guitar copping Rhino's riffs.
	10:10pm Dave Mandl: Should be easier to get umlauts on a Mac. ÜüÜüÜüÜüÜüÜüÜüÜüÜüÜüÜüÜüÜüÜü
	10:11pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Oh. 'It generates familiar sci-fi sounds (Dr. Who)' - 'Dr. Who' is the first thing I thot on seeing it! I know nothing about synths - but it's a nice looking thing.
	10:13pm Ralphine: HAH!! Correctly guessed Jackie Gleason.
	10:15pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: - well - Captain Beyond suffered from being too 'Prog' for Rockers, & vice-versa - whereas for some of us, that's exactly the appeal.
	10:16pm beavoux: Jackie Gleason had an LP that Dali did the cover for.
	10:17pm Uncle Michael: A lot of Bushwickers claim Bensonhurst. Unrepentant social climbers....
	10:18pm Ralphine: Okay Mr. Honeymooners Expert, who is the composer of Swanee River?
	10:18pm Uncle Michael: Ed Norton!
	10:19pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...I think - Dust? - put me in mind of C.Beyond...
	10:19pm beavoux: Rod Evans who sang Hush with Deep Purple left after the first LP.
	10:20pm Ralphine: My favorite Honeymooners line!
	10:21pm Uncle Michael: Can it core a apple?
	10:21pm beavoux: Hey Ralphie boy!
	10:22pm Ralphine: The Chef of the Future?
	10:22pm unununun: Magma & the prog rock groups that were spawned as a result of their music are considered Zeuhl. Zeuhl means 'celestial' in the Kobaïan language invented by the drummer and composer of Magma, Christian Zander.
	10:22pm beavoux: This is all over the place.
	10:23pm unununun: I know, way late to posting that. ^ ^ Sorry.
	10:24pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: HoneyMoonersCaptainBeyond: One of these days - Pow! Straight to the MoonSpeaks Softly to the Sea...
	10:25pm fleep: Zeuhl sounds very cromulent.
	10:25pm beavoux: Paul McCartney called him Crazy Moondog.
	10:26pm Uncle Michael: There is no Dana...only Zeuhl.
	10:27pm Dave Mandl: @Ralphine: Give me another Honeymooners line.
	10:27pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Maybe CaptainBeyond goes w/ Honeymooners Like DarkSide & Wiz of Oz... - Johnny & the Moondogs was one of the early Beatles monikers. - I wonder what the history of that word - Moondog - is. It calls to mind the Moon card in Tarot...
	10:28pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: - speaking of RobertJohnson...
	10:28pm Uncle Michael: Moondog Matinee
	10:28pm Dave Mandl: I hope they like those jokes on the moon, 'cause that's where you're going.
	10:29pm beavoux: And a VCS3 to boot
	10:32pm beavoux: Great show so far Dave!
	10:32pm Ralphine: "Well, say hello to Ralphina."
	10:33pm pacific standard simon: Well, a SUNdog is an atmospheric phenomenon that looks like a halo or pair of bright spots around the sun, so there's that.
	10:34pm Dave Mandl: @beavoux: Thanks, and was that a Honeymooners reference? ("And a scratch to boot.")
	10:36pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Canines howl @ the Moon.
	10:37pm Uncle Michael: Alan Freed was Moondog too.
	10:37pm beavoux: Sure!
	10:38pm pacific standard simon: The two of them actually got into some legal bickering over it.
	10:39pm beavoux: Captain Video!
	10:41pm Uncle Michael: James Darren was Moondoggie.
	10:42pm Droll: Captain Video was the sci-fi show with a western stuck in the middle! Those are wild!
	10:44pm Keili: HIHIHIHIHIHIHIHIHIHIHIHIHIHIHIHwalruses
	10:45pm Dave Mandl: @Keili, what's up?!
	10:48pm beavoux: Norton loved CV www.youtube.com...
	10:51pm pacific standard simon: It seems that the mascot of the Cleveland Cavaliers is named Moondog.
	10:55pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: cor'blimey
	10:59pm Keili: NOTHING.
	10:59pm beavoux: cool
	11:01pm Dave Mandl: @K: You're going to be on the air w/Amedeo at 3, right?
	11:03pm Keili: MAYBZ. YEAH. I WILL. THATS CAPITAL E TO U BUDDY
	11:03pm amEdeo: YEAH.
	11:05pm amEdeo: WUT WUT????
	11:06pm beavoux: Didn't DJ Julie say she was gonna be on with DJ amEdeo. The other morning?
	11:06pm Dave Mandl: Sorry, my Shift kEy is broken.
	11:07pm pacific standard simon: Messin' wit chu.
	11:08pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Nutty track!...was Zappa-ish - now all King Crimsony...
	11:09pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...wait - did I miss transition Jaga to Mole...
	11:09pm Dave Mandl: Matching Mole. Robert Wyatt's band.
	11:10pm Dave Mandl: Yeah, I think you did. It was a subtle segue.
	11:10pm pacific standard simon: Machine Molle
	11:10pm beavoux: Most of those Canterbury scene bands have that same influece.
	11:10pm Dave Mandl: @PSS: C'est vrai.
	11:11pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: eh, I ✩ all the bastards...I listen to Soft Machine often enuff, I shoulda heard...
	11:12pm beavoux: National Health, Gilgamesh, Hatfield and the North etc.
	11:13pm pacific standard simon: Naturellement, mon petit chou.
	11:13pm tomB: @simon: thanx for explaining, I knew it was a pun, but couldn't remember how!
	11:19pm tomB: that's the 2nd time I've been fooled by Dinger +Japandorf
	11:21pm beavoux: That Matching Mole Little Red Record was produced by Robert Fripp. I didn't know that.
	11:22pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: - so I not off thinking of Crimson.
	11:24pm Dave Mandl: Fripp also produced the group Centipede, which contained a lot of people from that same crowd.
	11:25pm beavoux: @Rev Rabbit, Bill MacCormick was the brother of The Ian MacDonald that wrote the Drake piece. so it all ties together lol.
	11:26pm beavoux: Six degrees of World of Echo.
	11:26pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: - you'd think they all lived together on some little island country or something...
	11:27pm Ralphine: I remember seeing Fripp somewhere in New York a long time ago. His performance consisted of walking on stage, fiddling with his Frippertronics machines, then leaving the stage to let them play, then fiddling with the machines some more, then leaving the stage, and so forth.
	11:28pm 12539: Ralphine, was that at the World Financial Center?
	11:28pm Dave Mandl: I had Fripp and Toyah (his wife) on my show years ago. It was fabulous.
	11:29pm Dave Mandl: (I mean they were fabulous.)
	11:29pm beavoux: Thats it, Zappa called them "The inhabitants of a miserable little island off the coast of France"
	11:30pm Droll: DM, Is that archived?
	11:30pm Ken From Hyde Park: I was not informed there was a meeting of the Raccoon Lodge this evening.
	11:30pm Ralphine: No, I didn't think he was actually at the WFC, but I was there for that, too.
	11:31pm beavoux: Sunday all Over the World was pretty good.
	11:31pm 12539: At one of the WFC shows, he made of point of letting the machinery whir while he crossed the space a short while for a "photo opportunity."
	11:31pm Ralphine: I want to say it was at the Bottom Line.
	11:32pm Dave Mandl: @beaucoux: Yes, it was just after the Sunday All Over the World CD came out.
	11:33pm Dave Mandl: @Ken from Hyde Park: There's a bar in Manhattan called the Raccoon Lodge, and it's not far from the World Financial Center. So it seems everything in the universe is connected.
	11:33pm tomB: speaking of Fripp, I just read The Vicar
	11:33pm beavoux: I just remember the track Strange Girls.
	11:36pm beavoux: @Dave, Is that in the archive?
	11:37pm Dave Mandl: No, it predates the archive. 1991, I think.
	11:38pm Dave Mandl: I have a cassette copy of it somewhere, but I've never had the nerve to listen to it. (I'm talking about me, not Fripp.)
	11:39pm Dave Mandl: Julie made a copy of it for herself last year, and she's going to be on AmEdeo's show in a few hours, so ask her about it.
	11:40pm 12539: A 22 year old cassette should probably be transferred, in the interest of History.
	11:41pm beavoux: He sounds like a difficlult and intimidating, yet interesing interview from the ones I've read.
	11:41pm G: Julie interviewed Toyah by phone a couple of years ago, and wrote 1991 as year for the Mandl/Fripp/Toyah interview... Would be cool to upload it if revisiting one's old self were not so scary (I hate reading my old stuff :( )
	11:42pm Dave Mandl: Yup, that's right. She copied it to prepare for that interview.
	11:44pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: I was trolling YouTube videos of people's accounts of meeting Hendrix - & there's Fripp's (audio). He sounds like a personable polite Englishman there - tho' I can well imagine he does not suffer fools.
	11:46pm beavoux: He doesn't like being approached by "fans" at shows.
	11:47pm Dave Mandl: I was terrified from the stories I'd heard, but he was charming and very funny.
	11:48pm Dave Mandl: I got a lift back to NY by the guy from the record company, with Fripp, Toyah, and Trey Gunn.
	11:49pm amEdeo: DAVE WHERE MAH HUGS.
	11:51pm Dave Mandl: You mean Huggies?
	11:52pm Dave Mandl: You're not that young.
	11:53pm Droll: Last Fripp interview I saw was heartbreaking. He called making records nowadays a "joyless exercise in futility": www.ft.com...
	11:53pm Dave Mandl: Just kidding. I'll give you a hug on my way out.
	11:53pm pacific standard simon: MAN hugs
	11:54pm beavoux: Sounds like a VCS3 again.
	11:54pm Dave Mandl: Very possible. This is from '74.
	11:54pm pacific standard simon: Wah-wah electric saxophone
	11:55pm pacific standard simon: with delay
	11:56pm beavoux: It was one of the first if not the first sequencer on the market.
	11:57pm 12539: Quality show, Dave.
	11:57pm pacific standard simon: ba-be-bi-bo-bu-bye-bye d-d-dave
	11:59pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Thx Again!
	11:59pm Uncle Michael: Thank you Dave.
	11:59pm fleep: Thanks, Dave.
	12:00am trsh: Tense bed music at that. FIne listening,
	12:00am pacific standard simon: Uncle Michael has the right approach to the music bed: hang a microphone out the window.
	12:00am beavoux: Bye now, next week.
	12:01am Dave Mandl: Night, everyone!
